I couldn’t agree more, that they should never have given in to the AFL on this, but they did, and are they going to fight it now?
I just want to make the clash jumper as good as it can be, or to put it another way, trying to make a bad situation better for us all.
I never liked Evans face from the beginning, even when people on here used to shower him with accolades.
so the guy who moaned for years about the curvature of the sash, is OK with a complete colour change? well bugger me, I’ve heard it all.
It should be ■■■■■■■ Black, not silver and that Evans ■■■■■■ us over.The legacy of David Evans…
Did he also not make some ridiculous comment at some event when supporters started complaining that they club just wanted money without giving us access to things like training sessions? The guy destroyed the joint.

Rather not … but I get your point re the jumper person thing
re: the sliver. I like the aboriginal art

Read my previous post… and the fight for the tightened sash was doable because it was in-house Essendon business, where as the colour change was not…it was AFL F*****G Essendon business.

Say no to metallic colours on jumpers.

Would it be insensitive to have a big smoking hole in the middle?
Finally no black outline of the sash!Touch p1ssed off with that actually. Not that I think or care if it looks better or worse with the black strip or not, or if it's grey or not, it may aswell be pink as grey, but was this a change that needed member vote approval? FWIW, looking at it w/out the black strip, I realise that this will be the 1st time since we wore the red sash, that it will not be in direct contact & contrast, with the black. The 1st time ever, that red & black won't meet, won't be side by side.
I’ve rung the club for a please explain re: supposed constitution rules on that. First time I’ve not gotten an answer straight up, seemed like no one wanted to talk about it. Yes, I was correct in what I had known of the constitution, as far as he knew eg “must be red sash on black”, I should put it writing, something only someone at board level could answer, It would be concerning if this was a unilateral decision, that shouldn’t have been.
Just did a search to check old articles on the initial jumper change/clash strip … this was a blast from the past. I didn’t know this was still up, nothing ever truly disappears from the interweb …

Said before, just paint a red sash on the skin and paint the number on the back.
Then auction off the opportunity to paint the numbers and sash on and the debt will disappear in one round.

What is it about AFL controlled/owned rights over riding ye olde outdated club constitution rules that some people can’t grasp?
The club sold all those rights to the AFL. Long ago. Almost everything any AFL fan associates with their club is owned and controlled by the AFL not the club in question. It is the price of their right to play in that competition. It’s all pretty simple really. Unsavoury to be sure. But simple.
I don’t mind ours, certainly better than…
